Checked against the HYROX Single, Doubles and Relay rulebooks for 2026/27, dated 14 September 2026. Rules can change during the season, and the judges and Race Director on the day always have the final say.

Check your technique before race day

RoxSkills is an iPhone app that coaches technique from phone video. Film a training set at any of the eight stations and it shows what's working, what's slowing you down and the one fix to work on first.

It doesn't judge reps or tell you whether a rep would count. On race day, that's the judges' call.
